We just checked out and my son is asking when to return back. Simply one of the best hotels in Srilanka that we have been to so far. Ronson; Reception Manager is very welcoming and fretted us with lots of positive vibes, Pandulla the receptionist is extremely welcoming and showed us the ground and the room. Room is extremely spacious, well stocked with all what we wanted including robes and flip flops, very clean and we had a private pool which again was good sized and clean. We had dinner and breakfast at the property, Good selection and well planned tasty menu options. Prashanth from food and Beverage was very approachable friendly helpful and looked after us well. Praveen one of the checkout staff was again extremely helpful during checkout with heavy bags.

Wonderful stay – felt like home! I had a lovely, clean room with a fan and felt comfortable right away. The owner is incredibly kind, always available, super helpful and truly dedicated – you can tell he really cares about his guests. I felt well looked after and almost like at home. There’s also a small kitchen with everything you need, which was very convenient. I asked about renting a scooter and he organized one for me at a great price and even had it delivered straight to the hotel – that saved me time and transport costs. The location is great too, and I liked it so much that I ended up extending my stay by another night. Highly recommended – I would definitely come back!

Coconut and onion salad for breakfast (is this salad?) It's very delicious. The breakfast is delicious. Everyone in the hotel is gentle and friendly. The male host helped me contact to see dolphins and go to Pigeon Island. All the arrangements were perfect and gave us all the help we needed. The hostess saw that I came back with the fruit and gave us plates and cutlery. She would also help patiently with some confusion about the use of the facilities. The room is very clean, close to uppuveli beach. It is also convenient to call tutu to the city center.

The staff is very friendly and they'll help you with anything you need. Our room was very clean and spacious. It has an airco and a ceiling fan as well and a nice balcony. It's also very nice that the hallways on each floor are really spacious with a big balcony where you can chil outside when you want to (or when it is raining). The swimming pool is very big and has really nice loungers. It is cleaned every day and definitely the cleanest, best pool we've seen so far in Sri Lanka. They don't offer breakfast, but that's understandable since there are so many restaurants nearby (literally next door). It's also a few minutes' walk to the beach where you have some nice places to go as well (bars, restaurants, etc.). All in all, we really enjoyed our stay at the Blue Water Beach Resort and would definitely recommend it. 👌

    This location was absolutely beautiful.

    This location was absolutely beautiful. There's lots to see and do and 3 nights wasn't enough to fully enjoy the setting. Yes you can spend time at the beach and go snorkeling, but you can also visit the Thiruskoneswaram temple and eat delicious food on Sarvodaya Road. We highly recommend Rice 'n' Curry Restaurant. As well as The White House for Accommodation and Rangan Snorkeling

    Trincomalee is a beautiful beach town, the beaches are amazing, lots of cultural things to do if you want, as well as lots of relaxation. Some great restaurants on the beach and in the town. The only draw back is it takes quite along time to get to (depending on where you are coming from) but that is the same across most of Sri Lanka

    We absolutely love this area, by far one of the best places in Sri Lanka. After travelling around the island, we decided just to completely chill and not check out the other beaches. We will definitely go back again and check out a few of the other beaches along that coastline. Food is fantastic and the people are very friendly! When we read up about the island, they said that this was the less developed area, but as far as I could see it was the same as most other places. Definitely has everything you need and one of the best places to completely unwind.

    I went to Trincomalee for a family occasion, so I didnt have so much time to explore the area. I found a lovely beach not far away from J7 Villaj Resort and I got the imperssion, there are not so many tourist in the area. There is a lot of activities around Trincomalee, if you like wateractivities, you find them on internet, what to do in Trincomalee...... There are local restaurants serving fresh seafood - from sea daily. Its easy to find a tuktuk or use the app pickme (works in all Sri Lanka). I wish I had more time in Trincomalee after I found the beach, but for sure I will go back and stay there for a longer period. Just take the night train from Colombo (from 11 Eur - first class) or reverse. Its a good place to relax and finish your trip after exploring historical places Sri Lanka.

    I wanted to go to Trincomalee for personal reasons but also because the beach and the hotel looked good. If you want only a beach holiday, then it’s great but if you want to sightsee, you might enjoy central Sri Lanka a bit more. We loved the chance to see a local community. We enjoyed the hotel, so could have stayed a night or two longer but we like Sri Lanka for its rich history and sight seeing opportunities too.

    Loved my stay here!! The host Rangan was so lovely and went out of his way to make the guests experience the best it could be. The rooms were clean and comfortable and the location super close to the beach, restaurants and bus stops. Rangan went out of his way to drop me into the neighbouring town of Trincomalee with no extra charge and when he heard that myself and another guest had not tried milk rice he cooked it for us for breakfast the following morning. Would definitely recommend and will return if I’m back in Sri Lanka.

    We stayed 6 nights at Trinco Blu and had a great stay. Very good hotel for relaxing at the beach in Trincomalee. Very friendly, attentive and service-minded staff. Highly recommend this hotel! Beach chalet was very nice with direct access to the beach. Large room with all ammenities. Breakfast was good with lots of options. Did not have dinner at hotel but there are many great restaurants on the beach and nearby streets. Recommend Trinco Bay Diving Center 10 minutes down the beach for diving/snorkeling activities.
